Data science (DS) and artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly growing fields with enormous potential for innovation and societal impact. To position The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) as a leader in the said fields, the Department of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (DSAI) was officially established in July 2024.

DSAI will foster a culture of multidisciplinary, data-driven research and innovation. We will encourage faculty members and students to conduct cutting-edge research in six areas: Machine Learning and Optimization, Big Data Analytics and Management, Speech and Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision and Graphics, AI for Science, and AI for Healthcare. By pushing the boundaries of knowledge in these critical areas, DSAI aims to advance the DS and AI fields. Leveraging the power of data-driven insights and emerging technologies, we are poised to tackle many pressing societal challenges - from revolutionizing healthcare and transforming financial systems to accelerating scientific discovery and promoting environmental sustainability.
